Haven by Stevie Kopas

Second book in the trilogy and still going strong. Though I did like the first book better as a sequel I thought this was still a very good book and a good addition to the series.
I felt like the first book focused so much more on the undead and running from them. While there was a good portion of that in this one it was slightly less which tends to happen in most zombie books and shows. Again there were some deaths that I was kind of shocked happened in this book too and a new character to hate. I didn't really see the need for Michelle, her character was so not necessary to the story. I guess that had to be a bad guy other than the zombies and Michelle definitely made a good one.
I still liked Veronica's character and I like how strong the author made her. Even though I know Ben is older than her I so wanted them to get together. I thought it was weird that Catherine and Ben got together so soon after Desmond's death. That was a little too fast to me but it wasn't my story. Maybe during the apocalypse you don't have time to mourn the death of your husband so you sleep with someone else instead.
I really didn't see the need for part two of the book. Michelle and Lulu, though strong characters and I'm assuming vital to the story, I don't know why so much of their backstory was told. I was actually kind of confused by the jump back in time like that and I didn't like it. Maybe it didn't have to be so freaking long.
I'm still going to read book three and look forward to this trilogy coming to a close. I can't wait to see how Kopas is going to bring this story to a close.
